Do You Prefer Mary-Kate Olsen as a Blonde or Brunette?

She's known for her edgy wardrobe and hair and makeup styles, but what do you think of Mary-Kate's latest switch-up?

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen Give Us Two Takes on Cocktail Chic
For last night's Fresh Air Fund's Salute to American Heroes in NYC, sister duo Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen styled up two chic takes on cocktail attire in black and white, respectively. While both opted for dresses from their own The Row label, each took her own approach to outfitting standout evening ensembles. Mary-Kate stepped out in a kimono-style black sheath, complete with a sash at the waist. She played up the drama with a few strategic add-ons, like her emerald cocktail ring, jewel-drop earrings, and croc-embossed clutch, also by The Row. Meanwhile, Ashley played opposites in a fitted and textured white sheath, which she finished with slingback pointed-toe pumps and an armful of gold bangles. Each makes a case for dressing up classic cocktail attire with beautifully unique accessories. Feeling inspired? Shop our editors' picks to channel the same eclectic glamour.

Met Gala: Mary-Kate Olsen
We've come to rely on Mary-Kate Olsen for her affinity for the daring and the dramatic. Tonight at the Met Gala she delivered just that in a black floor-length gown from her own The Row collection.
